Powers of Attorney
A Power of Attorney is a legal document which authorises one or more people to act on your behalf.
There are different types of Power of Attorney: it can cover financial or welfare matters or both.
Without a Power of Attorney, the people around you who want to help will need to apply to the courts to be able to act on your behalf, which is time consuming, costly and can be restrictive. It also can result in insurance policies needing to be put in place as well as well as extra responsibilities to make reports to the Office of the Public Guardian and keep records.
A Power of Attorney makes the process more straightforward and allows you to decide who can act for you if something happens, what specific powers they will or will not have and when they can exercise them.Getting a Power of Attorney in place is not complicated and lets you take the important decisions while you are well and provides comfort that you will be looked after by those you want.
